how old are you
Genesis 47:7-10
An American man went on vacation to Jerusalem with his family. However, during the trip, my mother-in-law suddenly passed away and I had to take the body to the United States. However, after stopping by the consulate and inquiring about it, they tell me there are two ways to do it. One way was to take the body to America, and the other way was to bury it there in Jerusalem. However, there was a huge difference in cost. The cost of bringing the body to the United States is $5,000, and the cost of burial in Jerusalem is only $100. After much deliberation, this man came to the conclusion that he would take his mother-in-law's body to America. The consul was moved and praised that the man seemed to love his mother-in-law very much. Then this man whispers into the consul's ear. "No, it is not, consul, a man who was buried here in Jerusalem a long time ago came back to life after three days, and my mother-in-law cannot do it either. What is this? Either one was wrong, or both were wrong.
In a person's life, how you came to this world is very important, but how you live until the end is more important. If there is a beginning in everything, there must be an end. There is a cause and there is an effect. And depending on what the cause is, the result will be different. A really good thing must have a good cause and a good result. A really worthwhile life has to have a good start, a good process, and a better ending.
God has always fulfilled His promised work and will continue to do so in the future. It must be the end of the year when we seriously consider what our lives should be like in the process.
Dear saints!
Been one year. What did you gain and what did you lose? How would you say you lived your life for the past year and what did you follow? Looking back, there will be many regrets and many things that are wrong. Now let's reflect deeply here. Remember, the cause of all these failures lies in not faithfully following God's promises. Therefore, while listening to God's voice, I sincerely hope that there will be a precious settlement of returning to the beginning and following the Lord's will again.
